Compact Telephoto Zoom for APS-C

The Pentax SMC DA-L 50-200mm f/4-5.6 ED is a lightweight zoom lens built for APS-C cameras. It covers a 50-200mm focal range, equivalent to 76.5-307mm in 35mm format. The optical design uses 11 elements in 10 groups, including an ED glass element to reduce aberrations. At 8.3 oz and measuring 2.6 x 3.1 inches, it is made for easy carrying.

Suited for Reach and Travel, Not Low Light

This lens fits photographers who want a long telephoto reach in a small, light package for sports, wildlife or travel shooting on APS-C bodies. The variable f/4-5.6 aperture limits performance in dim conditions and restricts shallow depth-of-field control. Buyers who need faster apertures for indoor action or strong background separation should look at something else.

Variable Aperture Defines Low-Light Use

The maximum aperture shifts from f/4 at 50mm to f/5.6 at 200mm, which directly determines how much light reaches the sensor at long focal lengths. This specification decides whether the lens matches the shooting environments and shutter-speed requirements you face.
